Residents’ concerns flagged: trees damaging fence, potholes on Pleasant Ridge and Stevenson, roadside trash
Summary
During open forum councilmembers relayed resident concerns about tree branches falling on fences on Coffee Landing Road, extensive potholes on Pleasant Ridge and Stevenson roads, and roadside litter; council discussed signage and possible tree removal.
During the meeting’s open forum — limited to items on the agenda — councilmembers relayed residents’ concerns about tree maintenance, road conditions and litter.
Councilmember Ruthie Seward said her sister intended to speak about trees on Coffee Landing Road; branches from those trees fall during storms and have damaged a resident’s fence multiple times. Carrie Ousley reported numerous potholes on Pleasant Ridge Road and Stevenson Road, said county crews had patched some but problems remain, and noted volunteers picked up two 40-gallon bags of trash from Pleasant Ridge; she asked the council to consider signage to discourage littering.
Council did not take a formal vote on these items during the meeting but acknowledged the concerns and discussed staff options for posting advisories and investigating tree removal where appropriate.
